Derek Roy to Miss 4-6 months

Originally drafted in the second round by the Sabres back in 2001, Roy has spent his entire career with the Sabres and has developed into a steady 70-point performer, while also scoring at least 20 goals in each of the past four seasons. Along with being Buffalo’s top offensive threat, he’s also used on its penalty killing unit averaging over one minute of shorthanded ice time per game.
